<p>As I read the chart, I tried to think what the Mormon answers would be. I don't know if the "Number" would be 1 or 3 or infinite. </p>
<p>It might be 1 because we are supposed to pray only to God The Father. He is supposed to be the only god we are to worship.</p>
<p>It might be 3 because they do say that Jesus and the Holy Ghost are members of the godhead. They don't worship or pray to Jesus, but he is the savior. The Holy Ghost is supposed to give us inspiration, but he is not to be…</p>

<p>It might be 3 because they do say that Jesus and the Holy Ghost are members of the godhead. They don't worship or pray to Jesus, but he is the savior. The Holy Ghost is supposed to give us inspiration, but he is not to be prayed to or worshiped. But they are all true gods.</p>
<p>It might be infinite, because God the Father had a God who was his Father, and so on to infinity. They are all true Gods.</p>
<p>Sex: Male, but there are "Goddesses", who are sister-wives to the Gods, but they have no authority and are not to be prayed to or worshiped. They are just baby factories (why are they called Goddesses? Good question!)</p>
<p>Women priests: Are you kidding!</p>
<p>The Holy Book is The Book Of Mormon. The HB addenda's are The Doctrine And Covenants, The Pearl Of Great Price, and The Bible (which all disagree with each other and the HB).</p>
<p>Mary is: The best Jewish girl god could find (must have been a looker too), but you'd better not pray to her or worship her (or even talk about her much)!</p>
<p>Infallible priests: No, but they won't lead you astray (despite all disagreeing with each other).</p>
<p>BFF on earth: Jesus, but Joseph Smith is a close second! </p>
<p>Polygamy: No, then Yes, then No, but Yes in the afterlife, except.............well, it changes periodically.</p>
<p>Mixed Dancing: Yowza! Yes! (but no lusting!)</p>
<p>Married Priests: You bet your sweet bibby! Can't be a God if not married!</p>
<p>Thats all for now. May do the others another day.</p>
